Europeans stranded as Trump travel ban disrupts longtime US plans
Europeans faced canceled weddings and dream road trips as the U S travel ban aims to curb the coronavirus spread. Paris residents Sandrine Reynaert and Gael planned a Las Vegas wedding with Elvis, while Jean-Michel Deaux and his wife mapped a 2200 mile trans America pilgrimage across Route 66 and the Grand Canyon. The restriction, excluding the United Kingdom, created chaos for bookings, with many scrambling to alter flights, hotels, and deposits while some saw it as an overreaction amid rising cases and warnings from health officials.

The move rekindles rifts from Sessions recusal in the Russia probe and underscores the president’s continued pull with Alabama Republicans. Sessions pledged to push his Trump-aligned agenda, while analysts note endorsements sometimes fail to translate into victory in this state.
